"It'll probably help if we can learn how we each work. Like back in the alley. As you saw, I'm quite... Long." She said. "So it'll be useful to learn how you can hold me comfortably, and swing me about as one does with a weapon." She told him. "Plus we need to work on matching soul wavelengths so I don't get heavy or anything like that."

"Making use of your reach is what I'm thinking. It'll help with defensive movements and safe attacks." He theorised, walking ahead out of the building. "Pole vaulting, and large swings and plus stabs."

Aspen lead Lacey to the wooded area serving as the training grounds for DWMA students. He chose an area out of the way, with trees serving as targets, obvious by the cuts, stripped bark and other such marks visible on them.

Now that he had the space Aspen spun Lacey's weapon form above his head, letting her slip so he could grab her closer to the end; this allowed him to hold her below his arm with one hand, pointing the rest of the weapon outwards to the side. "Moving you around is definitely going to take getting used to."

His response to that was to flip her up vertically, before grabbing the end with his other hand and bringing the weapon low to the ground; spinning on the spot he scythed the cutting edge of the lance-head into the trunk of a tree, right above the roots. "Too slow..." He muttered as he pulled her out of the tree.

"Nothing in particular. Moving you around is difficult. The ground gets in the way..." He explained as he stuck one of her points down into the dirt. He walked around her in a circle with his arms crossed, obviously thinking of what he could do.

"Hmmm..." She mumbled, trying to think of ways that he could easily swing her around without knocking her into the ground. "I've never had a meister before, so I've never had anyone to use me. But maybe try out hold me higher or lower to my blade?" She suggested thoughtfully.

"Obviously! But attacking with only half the weapon would be... Inefficient." He said as continued to circle, tapping on his arm as he did so. "Your weapon is amazing for leverage and range. I don't want to not have those." He said, before pulling Lacey from the ground again, resting her across his shoulders. "What is the most obvious but least sensible answer when the ground is too close?"

"Well geez..." She muttered. "You don't have to be so mean about it. I was just trying to help." She said in a way that came across that she knew he wasn't being intentionally mean, and that she was just joking. "But uh, I would make the ground further away from me if that was even possible."
